“Opalite” is Taylor’s newest love anthem — inspired by Travis Kelce and glowing with synth-pop magic
On the New Heights podcast, Kelce called “Opalite” his top track. No surprise — it’s all about him.
Taylor said she was drawn to the word opalite after learning it’s a man-made gem
Swift cherry-picks words she loves — and Opalite was in her lyric vault long before it became a song.
Produced by Max Martin & Shellback, this shimmering synth-pop track is pure candy for the ears.
Swift's lyrics shine with happiness, healing, and the high of real love: “The sky turned opalite.”
He got down on one knee in August, giving Taylor an old-mine-cut gem. Yes, there were tears.
Forget tortured poets. This is a bedazzled bathtub, dancing-through-lightning-strikes era — glam, bold, and romantic.
“I had a bad habit / of missing lovers past / my brother used to call it / ‘eating out of the trash.’”
“But my mama told me / ‘It’s alright / You were dancing through the lightning strikes.’”
Travis calls her a “vibe booster.” She calls him her “human exclamation point.” Fans call it #GOALS.
